If they’re any good, gotta pay up and pay up early. Like we do.

I never understand why clubs leave it until late in the January window to buy players.

Newcastle have had all month to get more players in when they desperately need them.

Selling clubs won’t do deals? Brinkmanship? Negotiations?

Arsenal were never getting him, nor were any other Premier League team. Serbs have a weird affinity with Italy.

Great signing for Juve, as a top-class centre-forward is the hardest thing to find. United have problems in that regard, btw. Martial off, Cavani likely off this summer, Ronaldo turning 37, leaves Greenwood, Rashford and Elanga, none of whom seem nailed-on to own the centre-forward spot.

Not an awful lot of options out there either. Arsenal now looking at Isak for £70m

Jonathon David looks a prospect.
Isak
Schick
Silva
Haller
Haaland
Abraham
Adeyemi
DCL

Tough to trust a forward coming out of Germany at this point seriously slim pickings. Need to fast-track Hugill and McNeil and hope they’re good enough.

City looking for a striker too..

Sancho - greenwood - rashford

We should be set long term with these as an interchangeable front three.

How many goals have the 3 of them scored between them this season?

I would have said Isak would be my first choice out of that list…

But then I checked his stats for this season

We’re just getting rid of a striker that doesn’t like scoring goals so I don’t think replacing him with another one would be the best of ideas.

David, Adeyemi or Nunez (the Benfica lad) look to be the best options not called Haaland atm. Would still be a gamble though.

Hope the scouts have a couple of unknown gems up their sleeve

Harsh on the lad tbf, he’s pretty decent.

Quite like Isak, he was bagging 1 in 2 last season and works his %@#$&!s off. Anything above £30 million would be a massive risk though.

As long as they're taller than 4ft 10 then we should be fine.

Can't see a big name arriving this summer. Unless Ronaldo leaves. Greenwood should really be rotating the position next season.

Midfielder (x2), right-back. Maybe a CB at a push.

There could be as many as 11 players leaving, will probably be more like 6-8, but still..

Laird should be given the chance for the RB spot imo

He’s supposedly doing well.

Try and offload AWB to Newcastle for around 30m maybe.

Defensive midfielder and then a centre back in that order. We can’t go another season with that giant moron at the back.
